IN_A_MINUTE:

AN INDIE EXPRESS… // “LOVE SLAM” is a brand-new cut from @angeldustmoney & it finds the Baltimore-based outfit bringing their brand of “VERY AGGRESSIVE TRUCK SONGS” across a 2:12 clip of hybridized AltRawk that flexes some power_popped oomph while deploying plenty of melodically crunched-up hooks. “YOU ARE THE BEGINNING” is the lead single/track from @borisdronevil X @uniform_nyc’s forthcoming collaborative LP titled ‘Bright New Disease’ (6/16 @sacredbones) & it finds the experimental Japanese trio of Atsuo/Takeshi/Wata teaming up w/ NYC-based noiseniks Michael Berdan/Ben Greenberg/Mike Sharp to bring the Boris penned track to its industrialized_thrash_metal life. @thehives are back w/ “BOGUS OPERANDI,” the lead single from their forthcoming LP titled ‘The Death Of Randy Fitzsimmons’ (8/11 FUGA) & it finds the raucous Swedish dandies ending their 11 year absence by bucking the bullshit notion that rock’n’roll has to mature… which is on full display across 3+ mins of revved up, guitar-driven & sassed_out Rawk. “BEYOND THE LIGHT” is the final single in the run-up to @lunacylunacylunacy’s forthcoming EP titled ‘Universal Pressure’ (5/26 @dedstrangerecords) & it finds Pennsylvania-based shadow_figure emerging from the muck & the mire to embrace the “internal fire” while enshrouding its message amongst a blow-out arrangement of eerie synths & searing six-strings.
